With James H. Boyd
Thoughts On Life, Faith and Other Profundities
Welcome to “Keeping It Real”
Hi friends! I’m Jame
Jesus vs Paul?
Many people claim they follow Jesus but reject Paul. Is that a biblical position? This article examines the New Testament evidence, showing that Jesus personally authorized His apostles, that Paul was commissioned by the risen Christ, and that Peter recognized Paul’s writings as Scripture. Rather than competing with Jesus, Paul’s letters explain the meaning and implications of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection for the Church.
Charismatic Gifts Through the Centuries
Were the gifts of the Holy Spirit confined to the first century, or have they continued throughout church history? This article traces documented accounts of healing, prophecy, miracles, and other charismatic gifts from the early church, through the Middle Ages and Reformation, to the modern era, showing that many believers across the centuries have testified to the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit.
Choosing Peace in a World of Ragebait | A Biblical Response to Online Outrage
In an age when outrage is rewarded and conflict drives clicks, followers of Christ are called to a different path. This article explores how Scripture challenges the culture of ragebait, urging believers to pursue peace, practice self-control, and become thoughtful witnesses for Jesus both online and in everyday life.
Baptists and Charismatics: How Wide the Divide?
The perceived divide between Baptists and Charismatics is often much wider than the reality. While important differences remain,especially concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit,both traditions share a deep commitment to Scripture, the gospel, and the lordship of Jesus Christ. This article explores where they agree, where they differ, and how believers can pursue biblical unity without sacrificing conviction.
Bullfrogs & Butterflies: What Does It Mean To Be Born Again?
